Do you guarantee AI citations?

No. We do not guarantee AI citation rates, ranking positions, or specific platform mentions. We improve the structure, content, and signals that AI systems use to choose what to cite.

What happens if we are not the right fit?

We say so directly. If the business is too early, cannot make meaningful page changes, or needs the cheapest possible option, we may point you toward Insights content instead of a paid engagement.

Do I need a developer before booking?

No, not before booking. Many recommendations are dev-ready and handoff-first, so a developer, designer, internal team, or agency can implement after scope is confirmed.

Can newer or pre-launch sites start an audit?

Yes, if the business has enough clarity on the offer, audience, and commercial goal, and wants the right AI search visibility foundation early.

Not an SEO agency. An AI search visibility firm. Good SEO foundations matter; the audit is framed around how AI systems understand, retrieve, describe, and cite business information.

visibility with
a diagnosis.

If your business ranks on Google but does not get recommended by AI systems, the issue may be deeper than one prompt, dashboard, or missing keyword. 1DOT runs a live audit call to diagnose what is blocking your AI search visibility, then recommends the right next step.

Why AI systems may not be recommending, mentioning, or citing you.
Whether the issue is structure, content, tracking, technical visibility, or entity clarity.
A clear recommendation: Rebuild path, Growth path, specialty path, or no engagement yet.

Audit intake

Step 1 of 3

Start with your URL.

We review the live site together on a 30-minute call and diagnose what is blocking your AI search visibility.

Before you start

Diagnosis-first AI search audit.

Clearer pages, stronger results

The goal is not more visibility activity. Clearer pages, stronger lead paths, better-qualified discovery, measured against commercial outcomes, not citation counts.

Diagnosis-first

You do not need to choose GEO, Tracking, Technical AI Visibility, or Entity SEO before the site has been reviewed. The audit identifies the bottleneck before any paid scope is recommended.

Honest recommendation

You leave knowing whether Rebuild, Growth, or a specialty path fits, or whether the foundation needs work first. The diagnosis is the same whether you proceed with 1DOT or not.

A 30-minute live walkthrough

We share screens, walk the live site, and explain what AI systems can and cannot understand about your business. The audit is a call, not a delivered report.

Right-fit qualification

If the timing, budget, or implementation capacity is not there, we say so directly on the call. No follow-up sales sequence, no proposal padding.

Outcomes from past diagnoses

What changed after the audit.

Manufacturing customer

Entity clarity, not content volume

Zero AI citations across ChatGPT and Perplexity turned out to be an entity-clarity issue, not a content-volume one.

0 → 7

citations across the same engines, six weeks after the structural fix

B2B service founder

A redesign would not have fixed it

Diagnosis pointed at a redesign that would not have solved the underlying visibility problem. Repointed to the structural work that actually moved discovery.

~£8k

of misallocated build budget saved

SaaS team

Two pages, not three months of content

The AI visibility issue was entity definition across two overlapping service pages, not three months of additional content a previous agency had quoted.

What you get

What the audit helps you understand.

The audit is designed to identify the bottleneck before any paid scope is recommended.

AI search visibility read

We look at why AI-assisted systems may not be recommending, mentioning, or citing the business for relevant buyer questions.

Page structure review

We review whether your homepage, service pages, and key commercial paths clearly explain what the business does and who it helps.

Content and citation readiness

We look at whether your content can support AI-generated answers, or whether it is too broad, disconnected, or weakly linked to commercial pages.

Measurement clarity

We review whether your current tracking gives useful visibility signals or just prompt screenshots, citation counts, and dashboard noise.

Technical and entity signals

We look for signs that crawlability, page structure, schema guidance, internal links, or entity clarity may be limiting visibility.

Recommended next step

You leave with a clear direction: Visibility Rebuild, Growth, GEO, AI Visibility Tracking, Technical AI Visibility, Entity SEO, or no engagement yet.

After you start

How the diagnosis works.From intake to recommendation in 5 steps.

01
You submit the site context
You share the URL, business name, main offer, market, current problem, and what a useful 90-day outcome would look like.
02
We run the live audit call
We walk through the current site, the likely visibility bottleneck, and where growth is being blocked.
03
We recommend the right path
If the foundation is weak, the next step is usually Visibility Rebuild. If the foundation is decent, Growth or a specialty path may fit better.
04
We say no if it is not a fit
If you are too early, wrong-fit, or need something outside the model, we will say so directly.
05
If paid work fits, scope comes next
If there is a fit, 1DOT confirms the recommended scope and implementation route. The default model is handoff-first, with dev-ready deliverables your team can implement.

Privacy note

We only use the information you submit to assess fit, prepare for the audit, and follow up about your enquiry. Do not send passwords, private customer data, confidential documents, or CMS access through this form.

What we read before the call

We review the URL and your intake answers before the call so we are not starting cold. You will get a calendar invite immediately after booking.

Not a free consulting session

The audit is for businesses with intent to improve the site, structure, and visibility path. If there is no current budget or ability to implement, Insights may be a better starting point.
